10. Resident Concerns, Questions

FIOS: currently, no

Yes, lower initial cost, but costs escalate, like cable FIOS wants guarantee of signup numbers to provide “perks.” Board not empowered to “guarantee”
Digging up of properties or roads to lay cable
No guarantee that properties, roads will be returned to original condition. Little that Board can do (baring litigation) once damage occurs

Problems with renters maintaining property
Board communicates with owners / landlords directly, not renters unless individually
Some cooperative, some not
Board investigating options (if any available) for limiting number or % of renters and/or number of units controlled by a single landlord
Landlords given assessments, fines for infractions

Litigation regarding Diamond Snake?

Looking into legal possibilities
Must be determined whether benefits will exceed costs
Board has 6 years to file
